A tastefully renovated 3 bedroom, one-story residence with a separate wood sauna located on 19 acres. It is an easy 20 minute drive to Houghton, Michigan Technological University, and the Isle Royale National Park boat dock. However, you also experience the secluded peace and quiet of the Upper Peninsula, as the house is off the main roads. Hike, fish, and explore the Copper Country, or just sit on the deck after a sauna, and watch deer under the apple trees as the moon comes up over the trees.

Great place!! Exceptionally clean and well stocked. We are pretty picky and we were very pleased!! We loved the sauna and the fire pit and even discovered some late season blueberries. We would stay here again and recommend it to others.

My seven and two-year-old sons had a great time at Opa's Blueberry Haven. We were there during blueberry season and you could truly walk out back and have a pile of blueberries in no time! The sauna was beautiful and the house had everything you need to prepare multiple meals--we stayed for two weeks. I would definitely visit Opa's again.

We loved the quiet, country seclusion of Opa's. It's a hop, skip and a jump from Hwy 41 and an easy 15 minute drive to Houghton. The house is very clean and spacious with plenty of comfortable furniture in the living and dining area. Decor throughout the house is simple and soothing. A large bay window in the living room looks out to the back meadow and woods. Our king size bed was firm but comfortable and we had an ensuite bath. The other two bedrooms share a small hallway bath. The wood-fired sauna is one of the best things about this property for anyone who appreciates the health-giving properties of this Finnish tradition! We loved it and used it every night even during 80 degree days. The large deck on the back of the house is a great bonus. Hosts responded quickly to requests when we needed assistance.

The house is well stocked for cooking, games and coloring books for kids, movies, books, more sheets and pillowcases than you could possibly need, blow-dryers, small sewing kits, wood for the fire pit and sauna, towels, and more.
It is a little bit of a drive from town (Houghton/Hancock) but being from the area, I am accustomed to driving a little distance to get to things. The amenities, like the sauna, make up for that. Also a 10-15 minute drive really isn't that bad! If you like privacy and quiet it will be perfect for you.
Marty was very accommodating of our request to check in a little early, and responsive to any questions we had. I would definitely stay here again.

We are life-long residents of the Copper Country, and live on the shore of Portage Lake. We both worked at Michigan Technological University, have 3 cats, a dog that loves the water, and a large flower and vegetable garden. We love this area, and look forward to share it's beauty…
